Dave Skelton began the August 29 , 1995, meeting of DRC . Planner
Morris stated that the committee will be making a recommendation
to the Planning Board. He reviewed the location of the project
and noted that it is an expansion of an existing building and
parking lot. He stated that the proposed parking itself meets
the parking requirements for the zoning code and commented that
members of the committee may be familiar with the present parking
situation which is inadequate for the site.
Planner Morris reviewed the Planning conditions . He stated that
condition #9 had been discussed with the applicant ' s
representative and that the applicant is willing to work with the
Planning Office in meeting this condition part of which is to
indicate on the final site plan the provision of a permanent
irrigation system for the plant material .
John Paysek stated that the first five conditions from the
Engineering Department are typical . He stated that #6 is special
in that the site shall be configured to allow adequate movement
for fire truck circulation. He commented that the plans were
well done, clear and concise.
Kurt Albrecht stated that he and Bayliss Ward had gone over the
plans.
Chuck Winn stated that this proposed project is not in the City
of Bozeman Fire jurisdiction and that the RAE Fire District Fire
Chief had contacted him to address some concerns as he was unable
to attend today. Chuck Winn stated that the RAE Chiefs concern
is that there is no water at the site for fire protection now and
with the addition of the square footage in the proposed project
there still will be inadequate water. Bayliss Ward then asked
specific questions concerning the construction of the addition to
address those concerns and noted that what is being suggested now
is different from what he and Kurt Albrecht had determined
previously. He wondered if the construction requirements
discussed with Kurt Albrecht could now be set aside in
consideration of the development of construction changes in the
addition. Chuck Winn stated that the addition construction is a
separate issue. Kurt Albrecht commented that he was unaware of
the RAE Fire Chief s suggestions when he had visited with Bayliss
Ward.
Dave Skelton stated that a condition could be added to resolve
the discussion. He said the condition would state that a Fire
Implementation Plan with RAE Fire District approval would be
submitted before Final Site Plan approval. Chuck Winn stated
that the most preferable method would be a sprinkler and that he
realizes that this is a high dollar amount without the water.
Dave Skelton asked if Roger Sicz had forwarded any comments .
Planner Morris stated Roger has no comments .
Dave Skelton moved, seconded by Chuck Winn, to recommend
conditional approval for the project including a condition for a
Fire Implementation Plan. The motion carried by unanimous voice
vote of the members present.
Planner Morris noted that the review process now goes to Planning
Board on September 19 at 7 p.m.
